Dragon Age: The Veilguard might not carry our choices over from previous games, but it crams in a few references to help the world feel connected. As it happens, one of these references involves a giant cheese wheel, because of course it does.
Towards the beginning of the game, when you get the chance to help out Bellara, you're taken to some ruins that are being used to store magical items. These artefacts are all being kept behind barriers for everyone's protection, as notes that you find scattered around reveal that they are dangerous. However, one of these items is inexplicably a huge wheel of cheese, with absolutely no explanation as to what it does and why it's being stored for our protection.
If you've played the previous Dragon Age games, you'll be well aware that cheese is an important part of the series' identity. It all started with Alistair (the best character) in Dragon Age: Origins, who makes a couple of comments about his love of cheese in the game - and is likely to blame for the huge cheese wheel in the party camp.
If made king, an NPC will mention how much Alistair loves cheese in Dragon...
